lol they always over do HDR.... Halflife 2 almost blinded me on several occations

So im alittle confused here.... will SH4 have bloom and AA? SH3 didnt have AA and it hardly looked bad with the high resolution mod on

HDR is sometimes overdone indeed

. About SH3, it didn't have built-in FSAA but it could be forced by using your video card's controls.

Yep, only difference is SH3 utilized post-processing effects (Shift + PgUp) which automatically disabled any forced FSAA. This perplexes me since there are some older games out there with smaller budgets that can use post-processing effects and FSAA (WWII Online).

SHIV seems to have both post-processing effects and "Sun Glare" (Sun Glare, I imagine, = HDR). I am anxious to see how the Dev. team incorporated these two graphical options in-game and their seperate effect on forced FSAA. I noticed they are both options in the settings menu, so there is definately still hope for forced FSAA...it just may require us to "uncheck" one or two options. This is unfortunate, but I can do without HDR or HDR-like effects anyways. I agree that it is often too overdone in games. There are parts of GRAW that give me light myopia. lol

I don't just want FSAA... I need it!

Since the question has apparently never been answered by the Devs, I'm waiting for the game to come out first in order to find out about this important functionality. I'm curious, is that what most other people in this thread have decided to do too?

Cheers

It seems noone mentioned this, maybe they trying to keep it low key, but if aa is not supported this will be a big breaker for many people as nowdays all new games most people run with aa on. Plus I fear it will also affect reviews. I would love to hear from the devs on this issue. I have hope aa works though, please!

That's the crux of the issue, OT. Many of us, I imagine, will still buy the product...therein lies the issue........

If many of us will buy it, or end up buying it anyways, where's the motivation to try and implement it in?

As much as I HATE the idea of no FSAA, I love Sub sims. Will it adversely affect my opinion of the game? Most definately. But I did pre-order it anyways knowing this. In fact, I think I may have been the first to start the "No FSAA?" line of questioning. lol

Yea, that was you.

I'll buy it even without anti-aliasing. Firstly it still looks good, and secondly, graphics aren't important to me anyhow.

This is very important, although I would prefer for multiplayer server client damage bug from sh3 to be fixed, then I will be happy.

Seems like Ati X1000 series support HDR and FSAA at the same time
